N.K. Forster Guitars

NK Forster Guitars

Handmade acoustic guitars, bouzoukis, citterns, tenor guitars and mandolins for serious players.

On this channel I share instrument building, design decisions, workshop methods, and performances from outstanding folk and Celtic musicians.

If you care about responsiveness, reliability, playability, tone, and the judgement behind a well-made instrument, you’ll find clear, experience-based insight.

My name is Nigel Forster. I trained under luthier Stefan Sobell and have spent over 35 years building instruments for players around the world. I now work from my workshop in South East Queensland, Australia.
